Abstract
In a method for the manufacture of a microarray, surface areas of a chip are brought into contact with different aqueous solutions that contain at least one coating substance. For each of the individual surface areas, an absorbent substrate is provided and is filled with the solution that is to be brought into contact with the surface area in question. Then, for the printing of the surface area with the at least one coating substance contained in the solution, each substrate is brought into contact with the surface area in question.
Claims7
An apparatus to provide a chip for a microarray with aqueous solutions that contain coating substances, wherein the apparatus has a mounting plate with openings, in each of which there is a substrate that is absorbent for aqueous solutions, which substrate projects partly out of the opening to form a stamp pad, and the substrates are filled with different aqueous solutions that contain at least one coating substance.
